Technical Analysis (Gann Charts) - Dow and All Ords refuses to fall
Source: http://ozstock.blogspot.com
About a month ago, my article (in June) was titled "All Ords headed for June fall?" As you may have guessed, I am bearish, and in the market following my own advice last month. The market actually dropped for a few weeks as forecasted by previous blog, but my mistake was not using a stop loss. Over the last week the market surged strongly. Let's have a look at what the Gann angles say.
Looking at the All Ords graph first, I've added a new (Green line) angle of ratio 32:1 downwards from the 2007 all time high. The angle gradient of 32 is a power of 2, and I've tried others like 16:1, 8:1 and they were quite far off so I settled on 32:1. But see how it turn out to be a resistance angle to the previous rallies since Oct 2007?
Looking closely, it turns out the June fall hugged the 32:1 angle closely and the recent surge broke the resistance emphatically. In absolute terms, the rise is quite small, but the fact that it broke the line warrants further watch, or even good reason to speculate of further rise.
It's only now after the new green line (32:1) has been added to the All Ords, that I realize the Dow Jones chart's pink line marks out a very similar trend. In the Dow Jones chart, the June fall and mid-July rise follow the same pattern along the Gann -10 line as the All Ords. The resistance is not only broken but appears prominently on the up side.
In summary, if the current rise in the market can be sustain for at least two weeks, there is a good case for a strong rally in this bear market.
